The people downvoting you might not be the gun fetishist you imagine, they might just not like the language you use.

fully aware that this is a US instance

It's not, it was created in the Netherlands.

you gun retards
spastic

We stopped saying "retard" a couple of decades ago, and depending on where you are in the world, "spastic" also isn't used anymore.

Ohhh I'm soooo sorry that my language offended some fuckheads that might go shoot a school up.

It's not that I am concerned that the "fuckheads" will be offended or hurt by your language. It'll be people like my sister-in-law with downs, who hear/see those words and she'll feel awful about herself for a few days.
